Alexis Stewart, the vegetarian daughter of Martha Stewart and co-host of Whatever Radio, has been active in animal rights and vegetarianism before. Now she’s at it again, hosting the Farm Forward Launch party in her own home and feeding guest with vegan treats.

Farm Forward is an organization that wishes to move away from the practice of factory farming and toward smaller family owned farms that care for the animals better, and encourages more sustainable agricultural practices.

The launch party attendees  included Alexis and her mother Martha, as well as novelist Jonathan Safran Foer, who is a Farm Forward Board Member. Foer joked that he has tried to go vegetarian several times and coining an old phrase Mark Twain used about smoking, he said “it’s easy to go vegetarian, I’ve done it dozens of times.”

Although members of it’s Executive staff are vegan, Farm Forward is aiming to create better lives for the animals that will be eventually slaughtered, according to Aaron Gross, one executive staff member.

Vegan hors d’oeuvres were served and Alexis baked her very own vegan cookies.

You can view clips from the Farm Forward Launch party as well as learn more about Farm Forward.

Melissa Etheridge dropped by Martha Stewart’s studio not long ago for an episode on the holidays.

Before she appeared, Etheridge spoke to Hudson Valley Inside Out about what she might be doing on Stewart’s show.

Given that you’re a vegetarian, what I’d like to know is if you’ll teach Martha Stewart how to make something like vegan mashed potatoes—because she’ll probably be trying to stuff a goose.

Etheridge: [Laughter] I think we’re going to do something crafty. You know that I am such a crafty girl.

We’re sure Martha knows how to make some mashed potatoes without the gravy, given the fact she needed to cook for her vegetarian daughter, Alexis.

Melissa, who is also a cancer survivor, did do something crafty-a bird’s nest planter.

Watch the video of Etheridge on Martha and maybe you too can become a vegetarian domestic diva.

Martha Stewart has just admitted she sucks. Actually, she just admitted that she’s not the greatest cook in the world. Her daughter, Alexis, is.

“My daughter is a better cook than I am. And she’s the first to admit it! She’s limited somewhat in what she cooks because she is a vegetarian. But she’s a fantastic baker.”

While limited may be a matter of opinion, after visiting her Whatever Alexis blog, we definitely would like to taste what Alexis is cooking up.

She shares some of her recipe and cooking experiences there regularly, and for November,  she’s got cinnamon rolls and a vegan recipe featuring kidney beans, thyme, garlic, and onion.

After confessing she ate most of the onions and garlic from the bean dish first, Alexis is sorry. (Or maybe sorry for those who had a conversation with her afterward.)

We’re sure mom Martha is smug knowing she has the better breath.
